Previous toot notwidthstanding, experimenting with the sound setup for the beams.

Sound is hard.

@JeremiahFieldhaven sounds exactly like what I imagined when you did the no audio version

Lifehack - instead of saying "my pleasure," say "that would turn me on soo much"

It would be really handy if IDEs had a feature that could tell you whether some code did the same thing before and after refactoring, just based on static analysis

@loke no I was being sincere - I was refactoring some code and I wasn't sure whether I'd kept the behavior the same

Just realized that when you migrate accounts, it doesn't migrate your account created date.

TERRIBLE. UNUSABLE SOCIAL NETWORK. WHAT ABOUT MY CRED.

(I am joking)

(mostly) (but seriously how hard could that be to fix)

I'm toying with the idea of moving away from Notion into Obsidian.

First point of annoyance: Notion exports notes as Markdown (good) with the file creation/modified times IN the text itself, instead of as file metadata (bad).

So Obsidian thinks I made all these notes today, and I'll have to manually fix them all one-by-one.

🤬

Me, when my prescription is about to expire:

"OMG I have to get it refilled! What if I run out?"

Me, when my prescription is ready:

"Meh, I'll get it tomorrow."

does anyone have any ideas on how you could procedurally generate boulder dash style levels with rocks and gems, in a way that ensures they remain solvable?

@eniko I think that's how Spelunky does it

in other news, the map editing guide is now 19 pages long >_> and yes, i am planning to release that along with some other files to make it possible to create your own maps in Tiled Map Editor on PC

so my busted alarm clock has a lithium ion battery in it. it cannot be opened to extract the battery. i am now the owner of a busted alarm clock because i cant throw it out because they stuck a li-ion battery in there when some AA batteries would've sufficed as a backup

this is the worst. i don't even know where in cyprus you can take these to dispose of them properly, and even if i did we dont have residency so we dont have a car cause we're not allowed to drive

I respect the amount of skill, technique, and dedication required to create “hyper realistic” art, but I find it kind of boring to look at. What are they trying to say? Usually, not much.

@paintedsky I wouldn't be able to resist adding a Star Destroyer in the background or something
